Reformation Bible Society Journal: Volume 1: The Reformation Text and the Septuagint

 

The Reformation Bible Society has published the first volume of the RBS Journal: The Reformation Text and the Septuagint (RBS, 2025). This initial volume contains papers from the inaugural RBS conference held on August 3, 2024 at Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia and a couple of extra articles and book reviews.

We hope to produce Volume Two this year (2026) with papers from the 2025 conference held on August 2, 2025 at Cornerstone University in Grand Rapids, Michigan on the theme: "The Text and Canon of Revelation."

Lord willing, we will host our third annual conference on August 1, 2026 at Greenville Presbyterian Seminary in Taylors, South Carolina on the theme: "Confessional Bibliology: Defined & Defended."

The RBSJ is available now in both an e-book and a paperback format. Look here for links.
